Jo Gowda | Don't Deport The Fun

Join the crew at Good Chat Comedy Club for an hour with Brisbane-based comedian and rising star, Jo Gowda!

Jo Gowda’s new show, “Don’t Deport the Fun”, is a cheeky and heartfelt comedy hour about surviving immigration, marriage, and motherhood – sometimes all in one day. Jo adds her unique perspective to the chaos of being an immigrant in Australia, raising a child who calls her “mate” and turning every cultural clash into comedy. She reminds everyone that laughter needs no permanent residency.

Jo Gowda is an Indian-born, Australia-based comedian who has mastered the art of turning cultural confusion into comedy gold. With a sharp tongue and unfiltered perspective, she digs into everything from nosy relatives to marriage disasters, immigration realities, and the joy of being misunderstood in two countries at once.

Her comedy style is equal parts storytelling and savage punchlines—relatable enough to pull you in, bold enough to leave you squirming in your seat. With over an hour of stand-up material and a growing online following, Jo is fast becoming a fresh, fearless voice in the comedy scene.

If you like your comedy honest, cheeky, and just a little bit dangerous, this is your show.
